I see that not many people have high opinions on fujoshis, especially now after the Crunchyroll anime awards many seem to downright hate on them saying that "they're the cancer of the anime community" or at least that's what i've been seeing recently. Personally i have nothing against them, and i'm kind of neutral when it comes to this, but i want to ask what you guys think of them, what are your thoughts on fujoshi's, do you hate them, like them, or are you just neutral about it ?

yuri on ice is probably the 1st boy love thing that i don't hate..
i hate when i see people checking boy love magazine things in anime...i usually look away or skip it...

that being said i couldn't care less about what other people like in real life =D

theyre pretty much the equivalent of someone like me... i hope they feel my struggle and realize what its like to have what you love constantly complained about

when it comes to the fujoshi that never bashed ecchi, or female anime characters in general, i feel really bad for them

when it comes to the ones that were always shit talking those things like the others... well they can get a good taste of karma...



anyway, on the whole i can feel good that they have the kind of anime they want now, especially since its clearly not interfering with the shows i like the most

if they sell the most, oh well.. w/e lol

I used to have a neutral opinion about them and thought they were harmless.

But since they contributed to the failure of the very first Crunchyroll Anime Awards, yeah...
I'll just be politically correct and say that my opinion of them is no longer neutral.

I don't care if it's gay, as long as it's well written and enjoyable.
I think people are just pissy because they're not used to such small amounts of "ass and tiddy" this year.
I frankly just don't give a shit. What does it matter if Yaoi on Ice won so many times on fucking Crunchyroll Anime awards...Same as any internet award, it is of no significance to me...and tbh it's a good show.
Maybe this vid will be more satisfying to you. I know it was for me.

I think people overestimate fujoshis. Yuri on ice isn't popular only with girls who like BL, otherwise plenty of yaoi anime would be just as popular but it's not. Besides did people seriously think an open poll decided by POPULAR vote was going to yield results that weren't simply a popularity contest? People just want someone to blame. There are creepy and overenthusiastic fans in every category of anime, not just fujoshis(their creepiness is the most common complaint that I hear).

I love fujoshis because they make gay porn of my husbandos.

I hate fujoshis because everytime I want to discuss a series the fandom is filled with ovulating women defending their ships (which are 99% unlikely to become canon).

So right now we are the bad peoples JUST because Yuri!!! on Ice won Crunchyroll award? WTF? People didn't give 2 shit about the awards, now when YOI won, they start complaining? I can't believe this.

Anyway, I don't care about Crunchyroll award, I voted and kicked myself out. The only thing I care about is the sales. I want the people who worked so hard get their money, that's it. I don't care about MAL scores, shitty awards etc.

When exactly can one be labeled as a fujoshi? I'm a fan of yaoi myself does that mean I'm automatically a fujoshi? And does that mean that half of the anime community hates me for what I like? All I see is hate hate hate in every yaoi based thread. "Rabid fangirls only voted for YOI because two guys kissed cri cri" If it was nominated just for the gayness, other fujo shows would be dominating every poll as well. But it didn't. You know why? Because most of them sucked ass. You know why YOI is dominating the polls? Because it's actually a good show.

Ok back on topic: let people like what they like. They don't force you to watch yaoi, they're just enjoying something you don't and that's okay, we all have different tastes. I can imagine it can be annoying (I also think it can be annoying when the threads are filled with ecchi) but it's easy to ignore it and it's not like it's affecting my life at all.

Let the fujo's have their moment. The hype will eventually blow over and maybe sooner or later a show of your taste will become popular too.

I guess I don't like the squeaky kind? Girls that go OMG OMG all the time about everything, and create weirdest ships out of 100% hetero male characters, or constantly talk about how cute certain guys from (usually) K-POP bands are together.

I mean, I like bishies and some yaoi stories too, but I don't understand why you'd go crazy about it.

Idk why people get upset with shipping tbh. If you want to ship two dudes go for it. I like to ship girls together is that bad? Or is it only annoying when it's with guys. I find absolutely nothing wrong with shipping heterosexual characters because there isn't enough LGBT+ representation anyway. We mostly just get queer baiting

^^ same question to the community -- what makes a fujoshi?

As for me, I just love romance. Male/Female. Male/Male. Female/Female.
Canon or Fandom. If the pairing resonates with me, I ship it.

I'd see fujoshi are more exist now cause many BL or bishounen anime adaptation in recent 2 years ago

About my thought on fujoshi, honestly i'd not really hate them if they just liked it in 2D form

In other hand, if they finally liked it in real life form (3D) aka GAY, then i really hated them more than anything

Guess you can say it's the same for me, though I don't ship couples as strongly as most people do. But fujoshi in particular prefer male/male over any other. And the weird ones are into pretty screwed up shit (just like any other weird person from any other fandom)

They're just like any other fanboys or fangirls out there. Not sure why people make such a big deal about them just because anime producers suddenly realized that they exist and have money to spend.

Anime like YOI is just fine, if it's well developed, I'm fine. As long as it's relatively contained, both parties will be proprtionally represented (meaning: gtfo out of my romcoms)

On the other hand, irrational shipping gives me stage 5 terminal autism, seeing the yuri army of Hibike get crushed was the most satisfying moment of last year for me.

Nothing against fujoshi. I'm just not interested in what they are interested and don't think that YOI was any better than the Hallmark special that they are crusading against is going to be. /shrug. They felt they had a reason to come out in masse to vote this time around... And all considering, there wasn't something else truly excellent for the community to rally around. Just how the ebb and flow turned out this cycle.

As far as the Crunchyroll results go, people are getting mad that a popular anime is dominating a popularity contest (which is wasted energy). I saw the results as something fun. It's not the Oscars for goodness sake.

I mean... if you define a fujoshi as one who cannot have a normal relationship due to the fact that yaoi takes over their life, I can't relate to that.
But if you just use it to mean someone who's very into yaoi, why hate on someone for liking something?
I dislike those who force things on others, shove things down their throats. That's what I hate most about yaoi fans. It's annoying as hell.

I don't care for them. Even after the rewards they are still irrelevant in my life. I am under the heavy belief that people were on the train and didn't remember anything that happened during the year. Also that there were like 7 anime that Crunchyroll watched and plenty of more factors to the rewards that made it not the greatest thing to take part of. Because let's be honest there aren't as many fujoshis as there are anime fans. So yeah there is what I think of them. The only real upsetting thing for me is best animation but that's another topic for another time.

I'm fine with fujoshis. Sure, there are some that are obnoxiously overzealous, but all fandoms have those kinds of fans. Frankly, I find the people that continuously bitch about fujoshis far more annoying then fujoshis themselves these days.

The amount of hate directed towards the Crunchyroll Anime Awards results would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic. It was just a silly little popularity poll that wasn't meant to be taken too seriously, but yet so many people lost their minds over it. Though I get the feeling that people don't really care about the Crunchyroll Anime Awards, rather they just want to use the poll results as an excuse to hate on YOI fans & fujoshis.

i dislike them and my country has a long history when it comes to hating fujoshi. here is a woodcarving of 1486 which shows a fujoshi getting burned in Nürnberg. notice the disgust in the eyes of the townspeople.



if you look very closely, you'll also notice that the fire is fueled by their disgusting yaoi manga. the one right under her feet looks like super lovers, doesn't it?

i'd say what was good back then, should be good now. burn them. for the love of anime.

Yes, you are definitely labeled as one.

To give a little bit of bg info... The term uses the same kanji that is seen in 腐る, which means sour / rotting combined with the word for girl (joshi). And the two combined words only refers to girls that are into yaoi. If you have any doubts, you can look it up yourself.

To answer your last question.... Take a look at the base words again...Knowing the the words involved, it can be assumed that at least someone in the world doesn't think too highly of fujos.

Well, that's really a shame. I know myself and I'm definitely not sour/rotten. I'm just into guys who are into each other lmao. At least 90% of the girls I know who like anime are into BL and to label them all as rotten is pretty harsh. Anyway I don't really care if some people decide to hate me without knowing me. I'd probably hate them too if they judge people for one thing they like.

This. I could understand if a show like Super Lovers would be dominating the polls but even fujo's know that show doesn't deserve much attention. People act like YOI is a heavy yaoi show while the only "yaoi" it contains is a censored kiss (WOW SHOCKING!!!), a few hugs and hand touches :p YOI is very well-appreciated by way more people than just fujo's, I recommended it to a few straight male friends and they all liked it. Ofcourse it's ok to dislike it but the hate it receives just from the CR awards is just ridiculous and not deserved. Oh yes let's blame all the fujo's for the popularity of an overall good show because they are the the reason for cancer, the holocaust and 9/11 as well.

I try to ignore them but I can't stand talking to them because they are annoying and don't care about anything other than shipping characters.. I mean for one person I know the entire Attack on Titan was equivalent to ErenXLevi (Even though they hate each other)

So 'Fujoshi are cancer to anime community' is not far from being wrong , But they are normally harmless and fortunately don't influence the industry much..

Oh and something amusing is that the character of a fujoshi in an anime does not stand out much and they are labelled as 'Normal Bystanders' .. A true Heroine is never a fujoshi (Something I learned From Saenai Heroine no Sodatekata)
